This will be an interesting book. I see that there are already people on their guard about whether it will stray from the Bible text too much, I think that's a good thing. There are those whom this simplification and chronological order will help. I never had trouble sorting out the Old Testament because everything is told by a specific person, so it's easy to figure out 'when' you are. It always helped that Chronicles was so very clear on who's who. Great interview!

Good interview. Sounds like Mr. Greenwood has led an interesting life.

I may check the book out and share it with my kids. The language of the Old Testament is definitely a challenge to understanding and enlightenment, especially for children/teenagers.

First let me just say Sarah does a great job at these interviews. I love the one that you did with Dr. Douglas Fredericks, but I think this one is my favorite. I downloaded this book it when I found out it would be August is book of the month in June. I started reading it but didn’t have much hope to finish it, but the more I read the more I wanted to read. This is a very engaging book and explains A part of the Bible that was very confusing to me. Especially with end of the World prophecies from people who really didn’t get the Bible. Thanks for the great interview I love that! God bless and happy reading! :tiphat:

The author abounds very sweet and charming, but religious writings are not for me.

I would love to read this book especially since we have been studying about People of the Promised Land in the BSF( Bible Study Fellowship) classes that just ended in May. Thanks for the interview.

Great interview it sounds like Mr. Greenwood wanted to write about what he had learned in his years of reading the Bible. It also sounds like he made it easier for others to understand what he had gained from his findings. It was nice of him to give an Interview.

I have already posted a reply to this interview. Nobody took notice of it, it was not counted in my score. My opinion is the same, but I hate repeating the same thing twice. Sorry.

When I was young, I used to study about the old testament. That's true that I would always found some parts hard to understand or even didn't make sense sometimes. So I think how this book is made ,in its chronologically way, would be so useful in filling some gaps and making more links between the stories. I can't wait until I get the chance to read it!
